- Insanity and love walking together down the paths of my mind... -
Powerless... False... as black smoke and as the mist from a graveyard
I tread in through the cracks of your renegate soul, in search of my own Eden
I cross miles and miles of loneliness, I'm travelling faster than Willow's tears
Like summer rain, I gently touch your wings, golden and silver
Sparkling in the midnight sun, glowing with the ugliness of death
A monster, a mean monster is the thing living inside of me
Love - what a horrible monster! It's incessantly eating me away, like a voracious raven
Worm-eaten heart, rotten, black with sorrow
With my back on the light, I spend my time crying inside a train which never travels
There - next to the rails, upon the rails, underneath the steel and the mud
My breathe lurks, crawling like a baby, I know, it will be the last to leave
Just like the monster I'm hiding inside of me
A blunt knife, a blunt razor, this is my voice
Does it even reach your ears? Can you hear the pain in it? Can you feel it nearby?
In the paleness of a devious eclipse, I'm balancing on a red piece of cord
A suspension bridge over the abyss - it's me and me only who crosses over
And you? You stand your ground, a statue never-moving, never-speaking, day and night
Immutable within the ice that covers your heart
In my hands, thorny roses, drops of an unrelenting pain
Gruesome shiver, the weight over my back of a knowledge I never asked to acquire
Grieving, grieving, the clock shall toll the midnight soon, too soon
My tired eyelids droop with leaden sleep
Exhausted, I fall into a tiny, immortal dream
Always stirring up a peerless need
Immortal among the ashes of the past centuries
Dull, grey and pale
Like black sand in infected water
The Reaper and his scythe came up close and passed me by
Shadows, shapeless and yet beautiful shadows, so strange, soar around me
Butterflies with venomous wings, softly poison my skin and fly away
Stormy sea, sealed in a crystal ball
Magic - the voice of insanity in my broken skull
Accursed and powerful, I'm laughing and dancing in the waters of Styx
Holding a rug doll in my arms, I sing to it an unholy lullaby
To sleep together underneath the Moon, with Hecate's company
Wolves screaming, running, barking, playing with me
My nest in the hollow of an oak tree
I crawl in like a small child and howl in the Fullmoon nights
I dig up a grave for my recently deceased heart...
I do not wish to know you anymore - I've got insanity as my good companion
Though you are a beloved balsam for the wounds on my body - leave...
Leave... although I still adore your breath through my hair
Before the dawn even breaks - just leave...
And I, running through the city, will be dying every evening
Seeking out bloody goodnight kisses... But, you must leave now...
There's another embrace awaiting you, run to it and save yourself from me and my insane love
Leave and let me be, with the demons eating my heart away like the vulture from Prometheus's liver...
Secretly, like the owl upon the cypress, I'll sleep the day away
And wake in the night - oh thou, bitter memory, leave...
I'll light up a candle in your remembrance, and burn my tears there, in its pitiless flame...
Leave... You never belonged to me and you never will...
And so I'm telling you now, my dead and cold heart, to leave... Run like the wind and leave...
